File Upload

Clicking on the File Upload button in the menu bar to the left, gives access to upload data (access level dependent), see Figure 2.

A list of previous entries (#1) shows:
•Filenames.
•Data Types.
•Status (“ Success ” = uploaded, “ Awaiting ” = upload in progress or indicates problems, “ Failed ” = data not uploaded and there was an error).
•Upload Date.

To upload files, drag your files to the dotted box or click inside the box (#2). For specific file uploads, see 04. Data.

Figure2: File Upload on the Data Administration page.

When uploading data, you can toggle whether your data should be published or unpublished (see below).

Figure3: Toggle publish or unpublished for your data.

The published status hides data for certain user roles. Which user roles that can see what, can be seen here (hyperlink to page with user roles).
The status of the individual data set can be changed anytime.

The status of the data can be seen through the data panel as seen below.

Figure4: Example of what published/unpublished status looks like on the GeoCloud.

The grouping functionality can be used to add data to user defined groups. Data doesn’t need to be added to a group, or it can be added to several groups at the same time.

Grouping is available on upload, and after upload as well. The grouping functionality is good to group data in different areas or “projects”, making it easier to find certain data on the GeoCloud, instead of scrolling through a long gross list of data.

If you hit the “+” sign (2), you get to a scroll menu where you can select all the groups created on the GeoCloud.


Figure5: On upload you choose 1 to select previous groups or 2 to select new groups.

Once a group has been selected it will be shown as a box (e.g., “Test_SA”). To remove this group, it can either be clicked, or deselected when the scroll down menu is opened by pressing the “+” button.


Figure6: Shows when a group has been selected.

For future uploads, the upload data will remember your last selected groups. Whenever new data is uploaded and you would like to append it into the same group, simply hit the load sign (figure 5, box 1 ) and the previous selection of groups will be added.
